Florence Knoll's credenza designs are reserved and cool, severe and angular, reflecting the objective perfectionism of the early 1960s. The Four Drawer Credenza includes two box drawers (each with one removable partition) and two full extension file drawers with two metal bars for hanging files. Available in four body veneers, and a choice of matching veneer or marble top options. All marble tops (with the exception of White Extra, Carrara and Emperador marbles) can be ordered with a polished finish or satin (matte) finish. The satin finished marble creates a matte sheen that gives the top a natural honed appearance while offering the same protective qualities as the Polished polyester coated marble finish. The credenza base is available in either Polished Chrome or Satin Chrome.

Select Base Finish, then select Body/Top pairing. Available with or without Optional Locking System. See options below.

Notes
Extra White Marble is currently on product hold/unavailable. The KnollStudio logo and Florence Knoll's signature are stamped on inside of credenza leg. Optional central locking system requires only one key to open the credenza (sold separately, see options below).

Knoll is Modern Always because modern always works. Founded in 1938 by Hans and Florence Knoll, today Knoll is recognized internationally for creating workplace and residential furnishings that inspire, evolve, and endure. Knoll's portfolio of designs feature works from pioneering modernists like Eero Saarinen, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Harry Bertoia, and Richard Schultz. Along with their classic designs Knoll strives to work with the best designers of today including Antenna Design, Formway Design, Don Chadwick, David Adjaye, and Rem Koolhaas.

With an incredible roster of products like the Womb Chair and Barcelona Chair, Knoll continues to remain true to the Bauhaus design philosophy it was founded on, that modern furniture should complement architectural space, not compete with it. Whether you're searching for one of their iconic modern designs or looking to update your workspace, Knoll has an array of products, which combine a Modernist aesthetic with residential appeal.

While a student at the Kingswood School on the campus of the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, Florence Knoll Bassett (née Schust) became a protegée of Eero Saarinen. She studied architecture at Cranbrook, the Architectural Association in London and the Armour Institute (Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago). She worked briefly for Walter Gropius, Marcel Breuer and Wallace K. Harrison. In 1946, she became a full business and design partner and married Hans Knoll, after which they formed Knoll Associates. She was at once a champion of world-class architects and designers and an exceptional architect in her own right. As a pioneer of the Knoll Planning Unit, she revolutionized interior space planning. Her belief in "total design" and her application of design principles were radical departures from the standard of the time, but were quickly adopted and remain widely used today. For her extraordinary contributions to architecture and design, Florence Knoll was accorded the National Endowment for the Arts' prestigious 2002 National Medal of Arts.
